Does Ad Blocking Affect Your Business?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the if-I-wanted-to-see-'em-I-wouldn't-block-'em dept.

yocto wonders: "From the individual's point of view we already know why you block adverts, but not from a business perspective. What is the impact on your business when your company's ads are blocked by using an ad blocker or a script blocker? How is your company's exposure or revenue affected by this? Is it still worth your effort to make use of online ads?"

    Why do people feel it should be against the law to make a living. Could Slashdot exist without the ad's? No it couldn't. By blocking ads you are making it harder for people to make a living doing something they have worked hard at.

      Then it should be perfectley legal to find ways for the webmaster to forbid you from visiting a site. His site, his service. Not yours.
